that is a sin. I think this screams for a blatant case of discrimination. They are basically discriminating against everyone except single and married.

But I believe Casa Di Amici is one of the properties managed by Lighthouse Property Management, one of those "Christian" businesses.

the less those with missing hands for minor infractions of the HOA rules. This, is a place we would not even want to drive by ... it sounds like 'medieval condo cult-plex.'
